Shadows

at the Roman Vishniac photo exhibit

Polin Museum, Warsaw

Watching one of the iconic images of the great Vishniac taken in Berlin in the late 20s of the previous century.

The photography and its viewers are almost a hundred years apart. The shadows remain. Does the original photo and its contemporary display above first trigger an aesthetic reflection or rather a moral and historical one?

About me

I am interested in the lofty and in the mundane, in the metaphysical and in the hilarious too. My film work has recently dealt with bridging the fictitious and the documentary as well as with seeking connections between the abstract and the visual.
